2021.1

Method type and url arguments are specified as shown earlier, with the addition of a
persistent query parameter which specifies whether the file is to be persistent in the file
store when uploaded.
We specify the variable file as the data or contents of the request, a contentType argument
of "application/octet-stream", and because we are sending file data we also specify a
processData argument set to false.
If the Named option is checked in our form, and the named variable is true, then a filename
query parameter is also added which contains the file name of the file selected (file.name).
Lastly, the settings object is passed as an argument to the jQuery AJAX function ajax and the
request is executed.
When the request is successful or done, a request response is received and the content of that
response is passed as the function parameter response. In the example, we then display the
value of this parameter which should be the new Managed File ID of the data file in the file
store.
